Special Day

Busy traveling, so I didn’t get this posted yesterday! Which means, that today my dear wife and I have been married for 20,001 days!!

We enjoyed a hike on Father’s Day, yesterday, so I posted these photos, since I have not photos of today’s events!

Sweet Perfume

Do you have a memory that’s linked to a smell? I remember the smell of the perfume my wife wore when we were dating. During the years that we were writing letters, I remember going to the college campus post office every day to check if there was a letter from her. The envelope always had the same sweet aroma.

Here we are after 53 years of marriage!

Merry Christmas

I couldn’t resist sending this photo to our brother-in-law for Christmas! Of course I had sone somee photoshopping, to get the cardinal onto the binoculars (And not a good job of it). Hoping you all have a great Christmas Day!

Attentive

So much to be thankful for!! Friends, including my wife who I walked with on this Rails to Trails trail near Millersburg, OH! Thanks for how God has led our 74 year old lives, including bring us together, in 1966. We are also blessed to have friends invite us to join them for lunch today!! Thanks, Jim and Jana!

September 18, 1966, the day I met this lovely young lady! That started our relationship, and we “never looked back!” We have been married 53 years, and are looking to many more great years together. Alice had seen me on a bus on September 17. She had observed that a young lady got on the bus, and she saw me give up my seat for her. She never thought more of it, until she met me the next day! National Wife Appreciation Day, also falls on September 18, this year! I appreciate all the miles my wife has traveled with me, supporting me in so many ways! This photo was taken on the East Coast of the U.S. From the hat, you can tell that we also climbed the trek up to Poon Hill in Nepal, which was a part of our 40th wedding anniversary!

We met at college

Courted for one-thousand days

Then wedded for life

Fresh Grapefruit

My wife enjoyed picking ripe grapefruit from a tree in my sister’s backyard, in California!
